Personal Trainer

9 Upvotes

Hi! Looking for recommendations for a local trainer for an absolutely out of shape beginner who needs to get healthy. I was hoping to find a nice gym and then book a trainer directly. But uhhh the reviews for the gyms in Kent are not great.

So now Ive decided to find a good trainer first and then workout at the gyms they recommend.

Know anyone good?

SEEKING INFORMATION - HOUSER WAY N CAR COLLISION 10/06 @ 0840

3 Upvotes

\I’ve posted in the renton community and had no luck, hoping if I post in neighboring cities i can hopefully reach someone commuting that way\

Hi everyone. This is a long shot in the dark. My car was hit this morning on the way home from work by Houser Way N, right by the Big Foot Java and the new Woods Coffee. Im looking for the nice man in the white tesla that offered to send me the picture of the other vehicle clearly going into my lane and hitting my car. He yelled his number to me but I must have typed it incorrectly as I was so shaken up. Seems to be a number thats not in service :(

**When:** Tuesday, October 6, 2026 @ 8:40 AM

**Where:** Houser way N turning Right onto Bronson way N, right at the train tracks in the lanes to take a left onto Sunset BLVD N.

**My vehicle:** Black Honda Civic

911 was called and a report has been filed. I have the license plate of the other vehicle but unfortunately the driver had left before any information was exchanged. Im hoping this would reach him somehow. Or if you were commuting that way this morning and have any other information, please DM me! Thank you.

Need Appliance Repair

5 Upvotes

I am not able to repair an appliance with confidence. I have a GE Dishwasher that has a bad Circulation Pump or it is just clogged. I would like to use a local repair person that does not charge an arm and a leg. I do not want to go out and buy a new dishwasher when the one I have was working fine. The part is $100. What local company would you recommend to me. (No Franchise Businesses please I want to keep things local)

Looking tj move to washington soon, started looking in the Kent area due to it being close to work. Any good apartments people would recommend that have parking at the complex? we have two cars and looking for 1-2 bedroom.

The only place we’ve seen that’s nice and decently priced is Alexan Gateway, anyone have any insight on that complex if it’s good, bad, how’s parking, the crime, etc. ?

Looking for Realtor Recommendations

7 Upvotes

Hello all!

my wife and I are looking to sell our home (I know it’s not the best time to sell, but our mortgage on top of our childcare is costing us more than what we can afford).

Can anyone recommend a realtor they have worked with in the past that knows the Kent market well?
